About Error Summary Data (LTE-Advanced)

Error Summary contains information about the quality of the signal being analyzed. This data can be averaged over multiple measurements and can also be queried programmatically through the .NET API 1) Access Preamble Indicator, or 2) Application Programming Interface.

Available Error Summary Data

A list of the available error summary data is provided in the Available Error Summary Data topic, which also contains links to detailed descriptions of each error result.

Averaging and Error Summary Data

When averaging is on, averaging is applied to the numeric error data in the Error Summary table except that SyncCorr only supports Peak Hold/Continuous Peak Hold averaging and Time Offset does not support any averaging.

The Error Summary data for a measurement is not included in the average when any of these conditions exist:

Sync Not Found
Carrier Unlock
DATA?

The following average types are supported:

RMS (video)
RMS (video) Exponential
Peak Hold/Continuous Peak Hold

For more information see Averaging with Digital Demodulation.

Querying summary table data results programmatically

To programmatically query the Trace Summary Table data results using the Summary() and SummaryUnit() methods in the MeasurementData object.

See the How To Query Summary Table Data Results topic for more information.
